EDITING TOOLS

 

COMPLETE EDITING


GSTARCAD INCLUDES ALL THE TOOLS YOU NEED FROM A PROFESSIONAL DESIGN APPLICATION. EVERY TOOL HAS BEEN PAINSTAKINGLY ENGINEERED FOR SPEED, POWER AND ACCURACY—AND THEY WORK IN PRECISELY THE WAY YOU WANT THEM TO.


 

ALIGN TOOL


This tool can align selected objects along with X or Y axis coordinates, avoiding perform move commands. This tool has different alignment methods and includes an offset option for each axis.


 

BOOLEAN


Union, Intersection, and subtraction for closed polyline and circle.


 

DELETE DUPLICATE OBJECTS


Delete duplicate objects is well known as an overkill command, and it removes duplicate or overlapping lines, arcs, polylines, blocks, multi texts, dimensions, and regions.


 

ARRANGE TOOL


This tool can quickly adjust the arrangement (vertical or horizontally) of multiple selected objects, and it has different arrangement methods, including spacing options for column and row.


CONVERSION


SPLINE to PLINE / LINE


The designer can convert the spline created to a polyline or line according to the accuracy (number of segments of the arc) that the user assigns with this tool. The more specified the segment number is, the higher the matching degree between the Polyline converted.


LINE TO POLYLINE


This function can convert one or multi-connected straight line(S), arc(S) as one polyline.


UPDATE DIMENSIONS AS NEVER BEFORE!​

ONSCREEN EXTRA-GRIPS


Valuable extra grip to avoid the dreaded PEDIT command; drag the nifty grips to modify the design; everything literally snaps into position.

Polyline objects now support multifunctional options. The available functions (Stretch, Add Vertex, and Convert to Arc) can be seen by hovering over a grip, and you can choose an option directly from the context menu that appears.


BLOCK EDITING


Edit block in-place is a great way to modify block when using other objects in the drawing as a reference. The tool we use is actually the REFEDIT command. It was originally for reference editing but worked for blocks too.

Block editor is a potent tool to edit your block. Not only allow you to modify your block geometry, but you can also create a dynamic​ block here.


​


EXPRESSTOOLS

BLOCK BREAK is another innovative tool. It allows you to wipe out or break an object that is overlapped by a block definition.


​



WITH BLOCK ATTRIBUTES ARE ADDED TO THE BLOCK DEFINITION, WE CAN DESCRIBE THEM AS USER-EDITABLE TEXTS. THEREFORE, EVERY COPY OF THE SAME BLOCK WITHIN A DRAWING MAY HAVE DIFFERENT ATTRIBUTES



EXPRESSTOOLS



INCREMENTAL ATTRIBUTE helps specify block attribute with incremental value and modify attribute value of the block according to the sort methods.





DYNAMIC BLOCKS saves time and standardizes drawings with ease, does no redraw repetitive standard components, and reduces cumbersome block libraries in the process, creating and modifying the block editor.




CHANGE BLOCK PROPERTIES WITHOUT BLOCK EDITOR AND REFERENCE EDIT.

REPLACE BLOCK WITH ANOTHER BLOCK AND COPY NESTED OBJECTS.
